While I think you have a valid point and I'm 100% behind it, cap and trade would not necessarily hurt "the poor". The difference in emissions between small and big polluters (them being people or companies) is abysmal, a low contributor could easily double/triple its footprint and still come out much lower than the big ones. I think a sensible solution is cap and trade at the country level and let it trickle down from there.
